Abstract: An optimization algorithm for the design of combinational circuits that are robust to single-event upsets (SEUs) is described. A simple, highly accurate model for the SEU...
As power consumption of the clock tree in modern VLSI designs tends to dominate, measures must be taken to keep it under control. This paper introduces an approach for reducing cl...
The need to perform early design studies that combine architectural simulation with power estimation has become critical as power has become a design constraint whose importance h...

This paper proposes and analyses the performance of a Genetic Algorithm (GA) using two new concepts, namely a static fitness function including a discontinuity measure and a fract...
